Morpheous' Bondage Extravaganza
Morpheous' Bondage Extravaganza
Lord Morpheous hosted an annual event called Morpheous' Bondage Extravaganza (also known as MBE), an annual public display of rope bondage during the Nuit Blanche festival in Toronto. The event featured 12 hours of rope bondage art ranging from simple bondage performed on the floor to aerial suspension. This installation was not an official part of Nuit Blanche. According to the event website, the first Morpheous’ Bondage Extravaganza took place in a storefront window on Toronto's Queen Street West in 2007, and grew to a 4,000 square foot venue in Toronto. The event was also live-streamed over the internet and expanded to include an MBE in Orlando, Florida and San Francisco, California. The event grew over the years, and attracted 6000 attendees across the three cities with another 75,000 watching online.
